We don't usually see Supermodels in mobile phone ads, but then again the Prada KE850 is not your typical phone. The fashionable cell phone is the latest model in a collaboration between high fashion brand Prada and mobile phone makers, LG.
Supermodel Linda Evangelista, who is the current face of Prada, stars in the minimalist, stylish black and white ad. This comes on the heels of her being featured in the recent Prada Fall/Winter 2008-2009 ad campaign.
The KE850 Prada is set to sell for about $780 in Europe and Asia.
This new Prada ad would fit well right next to the fashionable advertorial from Sony Ericsson for their C905 phone.
